Kansas saw something in Corrigan Powell much earlier than any other Division I program. The Jayhawks decided to extend a scholarship offer and the 5-foot-10, 161-pound cornerback from Lakeview Centennial High School in Garland, Texas, accepted the offer on November 5. Having never been on campus, Powell will make his way to Lawrence this weekend for an official visit.

Powell, a three-star prospect and No. 60 ranked cornerback in the class of 2008, has been high on Mark Mangino's squad for a long time. While he ultimately picked Kansas over the likes of Miami-FL, Oklahoma State, Texas, Florida and others, many programs didn't take notice of Powell until his senior season.
